Abstract: A water impervious wall panel system includes an intermediate first wall panel composed of a waterproof core and a decorative surfacing attached to the core, wherein the intermediate first wall panel is provided with tongue-and-groove edges. The water impervious wall panel system also includes an end second wall panel composed of a waterproof core and a decorative surfacing attached to the core, wherein the end second wall panel is provided with a tongue-and-groove edge and a rolled edge.

Abstract: A method for manufacture of a digitally printed decorative surfacing material includes applying a textured layer upon a substrate, processing a digital image to compensate for additional surface area provided by the textured layer so as to produce a resultant digital image, digitally printing the resultant digital image upon the textured layer, applying a top coat layer over the digitally printed image. A digitally printed decorative surfacing material in accordance with the method described above is also provided.

Abstract: A digitally printed decorative surfacing material includes a base layer of vulcanized fiber with ink on a top surface thereof, the base layer and the ink defining a printed vulcanized fiber base layer. The digitally printed decorative surfacing material also includes a top coat layer applied to the printed vulcanized fiber base layer to provide scratch resistance and other physical properties. The digitally printed decorative surfacing material is manufactured by providing a base layer of vulcanized fiber, applying ink on a top surface of the base layer thereby defining a printed vulcanized fiber base layer, and applying a top coat layer to the printed vulcanized fiber base layer to provide scratch resistance and other physical properties.

Abstract: A system for the manufacture and creation of surfacing materials includes a central server maintaining operational software facilitating various functionalities. The central server functions in accordance with a client-server model where the central server coordinates provision of services and requests. The system also includes a design database linked to the central server, a manufacturing facility linked to the central server, a company website linked to the central server, design tools linked to the central server, input tools linked to the central server, and output tools linked to the central server.
